BitMEX | San Francisco | VISA | On-Site | bitmex.com/careers

What is BitMEX - and why do we exist? BitMEX is a derivatives trading platform that offers investors opportunities using only Bitcoin. We are not a spot exchange where you can buy Bitcoin with USD or other fiat currencies. Across the globe, and particularly in Asia, we have over half a million open accounts, of which approximately 100,000 belong to active users.

Effectively, BitMEX offers commercial hedgers, Bitcoin miners, and professional and retail traders the ability to speculate on the price of Bitcoin, and to exchange Bitcoin risk, with other market participants on a level playing field. Our platform was developed by ex-bankers who were (and are) well-versed in computer science, financial engineering, and traditional finance. BitMEX launched in 2014 and subsequently has grown to become one of the most important marketplaces in the crypto space.

Our hottest positions are listed below. Please apply if you are interested in learning more. For questions, reach out to people@bitmex.com

Kalepa | Machine Learning Engineers, Backend / Data Engineers, Full-Stack Engineers | New York City, NY | ONSITE / PARTIAL REMOTE, VISA Kalepa is a New York based, VC backed, startup building software to transform and disrupt the $1T commercial insurance market.

Engineers at Kalepa will be solving interesting and challenging problems at the intersection of big data pipelines, cutting-edge machine learning models, intuitive frontend apps, and robust infrastructure. You will be working in a small team building technology from the ground up with the latest stack.

One trillion dollars are spent globally each year on commercial insurance. However, the process for estimating the risk associated with a given business across various perils is still reliant on inefficient and inaccurate forms and research. This information asymmetry leads to a broken set of incentives and a poor experience for both businesses and insurers alike. By combining cutting edge data science, enterprise software, and insurance expertise, Kalepa is delivering precision underwriting at scale. Kalepa is turning real-world data into a complete understanding of risk.

Kalepa is led by a strong team with experiences from Facebook, APT (acquired by Mastercard for $600M in 2015), the Israel Defense Forces, MIT, Berkeley, and UPenn. We are backed by IA Ventures.

Tech Stack: Our frontend is React Native for mobile, and we’re experimenting with React Native Web on the web side. Our backend is currently Java deployed using kubernetes, but we have a polyglot approach to problem solving, and we will likely end up with a backend that reflects that.
